| Abstract (English): |
In this paper we present an Akimel O'odham (Pima) food production calendar. The environmental and biological data for the calendar derive in large part from information gathered in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries CE. The social and cultural data are derived from what we know of the Akimel O'odham (Pima) Indians, a Native American group that has lived along the Middle Gila River in southern Arizona. Plants considered include a Mesoamerican suite (maize, beans, cucurbits, cotton) as well as major local species (mesquite, agave, saguaro, cholla). Animals considered include lagomorphs, rodents, and deer. The major changes in Akimel O'odham (Pima) agriculture after the Spanish entrada are evaluated. We argue that much of the production calendar can plausibly be retrodicted into prehistory, specifically to that archaeological culture called Hohokam. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
| Abstract (Spanish): |
En este trabajo presentamos un calendario de producción alimenticia de los Akimel O'odham (Pima). Los datos ambientales y biológicos para el calendario provienen de información recolectada en los siglos XIX y XX. Los datos sociales y culturales derivan de lo que sabemos sobre los Akimel O'odham (Pima), un grupo indígena Americano que habita la cuenca media del Río Gila en el sur de Arizona. Las plantas que se consideran incluyen variedades mesoamericanas (maíz, frijol, calabaza, algodón) así como las principales especies locales (mesquite, agave, saguaro, cholla). Entre los animales están los lagomorfos, roedores y el venado. Se evalúan los principales cambios en la agricultura Akimel O'odham (Pima) después del contacto con los españoles. Nuestro argumento es que gran parte del calendario de producción puede plausiblemente aplicarse a tiempos anteriores al contacto europeo, específicamente a la cultura arqueológica Hohokam.
